The list, which carries the names and photographs of the wanted terrorists and other inmates, was the first to be issued by the Service through the office of the Public Relations Officer, Umar Abubakar.

However, the names of Hamisu Wadume, the notorious kidnap kingpin from Taraba State, and Boko Haram Commander, Al Barnawi, were not in the list.

The NCoS authorities were silent on them.
